I have travelled once by train with my uncle in England. I didn't have any problems and it was great experience I would like to do it again. I don't go by train in my country, because I always travel by car with my parents. By the way we have got very fast trains they are called Pendolino.

Hello, I think that the train trips offered by my country are extraordinary because I can know the culture and traditions of the people to where the train passes. In addition, in Ecuador the use of train is 100% for tourism. My best experience in train is the devil's nose route because the route brings with it adrenaline and a view of the ecosystem never before seen. Finally, train travel especially in Ecuador is the best experience.

I have never had the possibility of traveling on a train since in my city there is no train service. But I know that in other provinces of my country there is this service and I would like to travel in one of these.

I haven't had the opportunity to travel by train. I would like someday travel in that.. I think in the train there must be a lot of noise, that is a little fear, because that way I couldn't travel relaxed, but out of curiosity if I would travel by train.

In my country the train is only touristic. There is a Trole or ecovia, it's the same. I don't like travel at this because in the rush hour is bad and dirty. But in the other hours is good because is very fast.
